Ok so I have an all male show tank full of Malawis and Nyariris and I currently dose them every water chance and a tiny bit with each feeding with noniodized salt super fine grain.
I know that's not the same as marine salt.
No I will not listen to arguments about how adding salt doesn't help prevent diseases as it's worked great for me so far.
Here is the QUESTION: If I slowly raise the salt levels and specific gravity of the tank how high can I get it before it becomes unhealthy for the Malawi's and Nyariris? Also I have some albino bristlenose plecos doing amazing in there. Anything to worry about with them? If need be I'll move them.
The REASON I want to make it brackish or close to is because there is an eel I will be getting that live in both marine and brackish environments. So I'm kinda tryna make the water meet in the middle of brackish and fresh so that both groups of fish can live reasonably comfortably and remain strong and healthy.
Any help at all is appreciated! (But please stay on topic lol)
